I hope Bama learned something against Texas A & M ? Hopefully , we will be ready. Georgia has a great team and one that can win it all. I just think the difference will be in the Dawgs lack of disicipline . Those penalities always seem to come at crucial moments in a game.

UGA fans calm down. You have a shot at Bama and then a NC. Probably the only shot CMR will ever have. Enjoy it. I doubt the schedule is going to be so kind again.To win a NC and play in the SEC, normally you have to beat several ranked teams. UGA dodged that bullet. Make the best of it. Truth is CMR teams always pad stats with weak teams. Like this year. Here is a stat to munch on. Gene Chizik at AU in 4 years (yes counting this egg sucking year) has more wins over ranked teams than CMR has had since 2006.

And UGA, you are not Bama. Not even close. Bama is used to being in this position. For that matter you are not LSU, UF, AU or UT. All these teams have won a NC during the BCS era. Some undefeated NC. Not to mention AU undefeated in 04. Keep in mind that USC can still say they are better this year, way better. No matter what happens on saturday. If UGA beats Bama and ND, its wouild be catching up with the other traditional SEC teams.

UGA fans don’t know how to act like they’ve been there, because they haven’t.
UGA fans, you should thankful and humbled to be in the position are in. Just chill and enjoy the moment.

The only way it’s a classic is if it goes down to the wire or overtime. Beat downs are rarely classics and Auburn set the all-time score in 2010 with 56 points. I highly doubt any team will beat that anytime soon.

All this crap about Alabama being unbeatable is simply bull. Alabama is a great team yes, but they’re not that impressive this season to me. Like Georgia, they have run up big numbers against crap teams. Alabama was beaten by a Texas A&M team that has a ton of offense and only decent defense. Heck they should’ve lost to LSU, but the Tigers’ defense practically gave away that last drive and handed them the win with that stupid prevent defense. It wasn’t hard to see that Bama’s defense was wearing about halfway through the 3rd quarter of the LSU game, and seemed lost during the A&M game.

I love all these Bama fans calling Georgia’s schedule weak as well. In case you Bama fans aren’t aware, Georgia can’t control the fact that a lot of the SEC East teams are so poor this year. But both teams have played plenty of crap teams so get over it. The Tide played Western Kentucky, Florida Atlantic, and Western Carolina so there was plenty BS on their schedule too. Yes Georgia’s schedule was a little weaker, and they got blown out by South Carolina because they played poorly no doubt, but at least they were a #6 team at the time. When Bama lost to A&M they were ranked #15! Heck Georgia defeated Florida who was #2 at the time by a larger margin than Bama beat LSU who was then #5. In fact several of Georgia’s victories would be even more lopsided if Richt and Bobo didn’t let off the gas so soon in my opinion. Anyway you want to look at it, this should be a good close game if both teams play to their best, but Alabama is not unbeatable by any means.

The SEC had 6 very good teams and six weak teams this year. Most years, some of the “bottom six” are good enough to pull off an upset or two. That did not happen this year, leaving us with 6 highly ranked teams losing only to each other. These teams played only a couple decent non-conference teams leaving the question of just how good are they? If UGA or BAMA pound the Irish, that question will be answered, but if they win by 7 or less hen the question remains. If my Buckeyes had only taken the bowl ban last year, the SEC would be sitting home watching OSU and ND play in Miami. That would have been a scream listening to the SEC fans complaining about the BCS.

I’m here.

So let me see, since the 4th quarter of the UF game Murray has been at his best!!!!!!!

Really? 4th quarter? We’re skipping the 3 INTs? Okay, whatever, so let’s see who UGA played… 6-6 Ole Miss, 3-9 Auburn, FCS school (doesn’t matter their record they’re FCS), 6-6 Georgia Tech. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not a winning record in there anywhere.

He played two good teams, both times he sucked. One time you lost and egged his house, the other you won because overrated Florida turned the ball over not twice, three times, four times, five times, but SIX times, and still almost tied.

Also, don’t forget that Johnny Football > Aaron Murray and Johnny Football is prepping to make a Heisman speech. And I’m sorry, he’s prepping to do so because he beat the team Spurrier said could beat an NFL team. That’s why he’s going to be there, but we don’t make the same mistake twice… ask LSU.

So keep putting stupid stuff up Schultz and Badley, and we’ll keep knocking them down.

as for the vaunted alabama defense vs. the dawgs defense let’s check the RELEVANT stats-defense against RANKED TEAMS-

Alabama-3 games- 374 ypg
Georgia-2 games- 329 ypg

who’s better against tough competition again?

ok-lets take it farther-against teams with winning records

Alabama- 320 ypg
Georgia- 331 ypg

in other words, the defenses are very comparable

how about turnover margin-that’s i big stat right? very important in big games

Alabama turnover margin against ranked teams -3
Georgia turnover margin against ranked teams +2

so lets agree that the defense is basically a wash, although Georgia is much better at generating turnovers in big games, the numbers don’t lie.

IT ALL COMES DOWN TO HOW AARON MURRAY PERFORMS UNDER PRESSURE-END OF STORY

the self-importance of the UGA kool-aid drinkers is unbelievable. You’ve notched one quality win in 2 years – which required 6 turnovers and a 4th quarter stop inside the redzone.

Aaron Murray has shown a lack of ability in the big games – which is why his record against top 25 teams is abysmal. Settle down and pump the brakes a little. If Bama commits 4 or more turnovers, I think UGA can win. Otherwise, it’ll be another pipe dream for Marky and his puppies.

This is what typifies FSU football forever. Cupcakes. Nothing but Cupcakes. Booby Bowden once was asked why he joined the ACC rather than The SEC. Booby offers up that what ? Am I stupid, or what ? Which would you rather ? This schedule 2012, or playing Alabama and South Carolina instead ? I thought it would give us a better chance at getting into the national championship discussion, if we played in the ACC. So, I joined the ACC. Then, I said why should I let the bad actions of some of my historically undisciplined players, cost my whole football team ? No. I’m not suspending him. It would be punishing my football team, who did nothing wrong.

So, he retired from football with the 2nd most wins ever by a football coach on the field in 1-A FBS wins. Against nobodies. Now, of course, Penn State’s Joe Paterno, whom Booby Bowden LOST the most wins ever by a coach when Booby Bowden retired despite his attempt to alter his schedules by joining the weak no top team ACC, while Joe Paterno joined the Big 10. (They never did count Penn State as the Big XI.) Now, Joe Paterno has fewer wins than Booby Bowden. What does Booby have to say about that ? I am the greatest, and Joe Paterno a bum. That’s what he has consistently said after being FIRED by FSU.

Music City Bowl Criminoles came into the game without 34 players due to various injuries, violations of team rules, and a large academic cheating scandal.

BCS Bowl Record All-Time FSU is 1-5.

FSU has LOST EVERY BCS BOWL GAME after Mark Richt quit FSU

Florida State University gained the nickname “Free Shoes University” from then Florida head football coach Steve Spurrier in 1993 after a scandal in which agents were found to have bought more than $6,000 worth of shoes for Seminole players. FSU suspended five players for several games.

In Spring 2007, several FSU athletes including football players were accused of cheating in an online music history class. The NCAA ruled that Florida State was guilty of major violations, announced that it would reduce scholarship limits in 10 sports and force Florida State to vacate all of the victories in 2006 and 2007 in which the implicated athletes participated and placed the university on probation for four years.[26] Florida State appealed parts of the decision.[27]

On January 5, 2010 NCAA Infractions Appeals Committee upheld its rulings that all penalties, including vacating up to fourteen wins during the 2006–2007 seasons would remain in effect. FSU officials responded that they were surprised and disappointed by the NCAA decision and felt that their own investigation and self-imposed penalties were sufficient. The NCAA Infractions Appeals Committee responded that “academic cheating scandal involving 61 Florida State athletes failed to outweigh the aggravating factors in the case.” The games to be vacated determined by certifying in which of the 14 games any of the 25 ineligible players competed. A total of 12 wins were eventually vacated in all.

If bobo thinks lining up in the “I” on 3rd and 8’s against Bama may yield success- we are out of this game with 10 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. I agree with Jeff- broaden an already broad hash mark and wear them down. Saban rather recruit a 6′4 inch 265 lb linebacker that runs a 4.7 40 vs. a 6′2 230 lb’er that runs a 4.5 40. We can make bama’s defense laggard if we spread and allow Murray to scramble out and take a few hits early if needed. Let’s get this done.

GT Bob – you’re an absolute idiot. “the SEC strategy is to play absolutely no one” — we played the SEC, just like every year. This year, we didn’t play LSU or Bama — just win the games on your schedule. What else can you do? Who did Tech play? Oh yeah, Western Kentucky. How’d that work out for ya? You’re such a tool. ACC fans saying SEC teams ‘don’t play anyone’ – what a joke. Go away. Your team sucks, and they got completely demolished by the very team you’re bashing. The conference you’re bashing is far superior to the ACC, and you know that. The BCS is flawed, not the SEC. What point are you making other than “I’m a crybaby?”

Clearly, you didn’t go to Tech – because to get into Tech, you need to be smart… and you, my friend, are an imbecile. Go home and psyche yourself up for that big showdown with Duke next year, sissyboy.

I love all these Bama fans on here talking about how big and bad their O-line is and how they are going to run over the dogs front seven. Yes, your o-line is big and several of them will play on Sunday but you seem to forget that you are not going to be playing against a defensive front seven like AK, Miss st or Ole Miss. Georgia is going to line up a 1st round draft choice John Jenkins (350) at on D-end, a 285 pound D-end that will be drafted in the middle rounds and a 365 NG that will go 1st or 2nd round next year. They will also line up maybe the 1st player selected in the draft at OLB and another 1st round pick at the MLB.

Now if you really think you are going to just come in and run over this front seven then you are kidding yourself.

It will come down to execution and discipline.

First of all, we beat UF, who beat both of those teams.

The SEC strategy for winning national championships: play hardly anyone, then beat one good team who had to play like 4 other good teams, win championship. UGA’s season was basically one game. That is sad and funny at the same time.

Like any other team, Alabama is subject to injury and fatigue as the season grinds on. They tend to have mid-season slumps in their performance.

Anyone who thinks that they will be facing the mid-season Crimson Tide in post-season play is in for a rude awakening. Ask Les Miles.

This should be a great game. Alabama should win it.

Alabama hasn’t done anything this season except win the SEC West. They are not the champs of anything else. In college the term “defending champions” does not relate to the present team on the field, just the institution. Sure, a few players are still around but not the entire championship team. There aren’t any players on this present Alabama team that have ever even lined up against a Georgia team, so this is all brand new to them. We can’t wait to introduce you to Todd Gurley.

As far as Bama fans talking about 6 championships to one (most of them won before you were all born), that is ancient history. This is NOW.

To Alabama’s advantage is that this game, like all other post-season college football games, will have more “TV timeouts” to allow substitutions and the defense to take breaks. Thus, Auburn was able to hang with Oregon a couple of years ago, but Alabama was not able to in a regular-season game against aTm. Also, UGA can’t run up and down the field like aTm, and definitely nothing like Oregon.

Also, given ND’s television schedule, they are better prepared for the long, dragged-out games that are the BCS bowl games. However, I still don’t believe they are anywhere near Alabama’s calibre. As a matter of fact, in these kinds of games, no one is. They have more depth at every position than anyone else in college football.

@ After further review. You are correct in the early years the AP ranked teams after regular season, but the Harris poll rated teams after the bowl games. Dawgs and Ohio STate finished 9-1 in 1942, and the AP ranked Ohio STate ahead of the Dawgs. Ohio STate was invited to play in the Rose Bowl against Georgia but declined. Georgia went on and beat UCLA, finishing with a 10-1 record, and was crowned NC by the Harris poll, which was the official poll.

I perdict Murray will have his best game of his career !! He & Bobo will put together a solid plan to keep Bama off balance or should I say Saban !! Their defense is young that’s why they like to sub so much !! We sub our defense for resting purposes mostly !! We will make Bama throw the ball when we want them to. The way to beat McRoy is to make him have to scramble not by design But to stay alive. We know they have to run the ball to make their passing game work.

“Auburn held the lead through the third quarter, and most of the fourth, until winning it with a late-second field goal at the end of the game.”

Which is exactly what I stated. Auburn had the lead at half-time. If Cam hadn’t have thrown a weak short pass then they’d have won by a larger number. Not that it matters because they won.

“what are the lengths, in time, of BCS games, compared to comparable regular-season games (eg, network TV, etc)?”

I’m not sure because I’ve only watched two entire BCS games in my life. 2004 Sugar Bowl and 2011 BCS title game between Auburn/Oregon. I wasn’t really paying much attention because I was too busy watching and being nervous about the outcome.

HUH, the fact that you don’t understand the advantage that a longer game-duration (eg, more breaks between play, etc) gives a team like Auburn over Oregon in 2010 tells us all that you really don’t understand the game of football. I suggest you stop commentating until you do.

NC Dawg

Dont get all excited thinking you somehow bested me by saying you struck a nerve and Im whining

Bring something to the table you know facts to back up what your saying

Just because someone says I hope Im wrong doesnt mean Im a waffling fan

I went through the good years and bad years with Dooley; and I went through Goff and Donnan

As a fan you should be wanting the best for your team but you dont; Im sure you were crying when Goff and Donnan were both fired saying who are we going to hire and Im a UGA fan I stick by my coach even if he brings the program down woof woof

I know your not season ticket holder for one cause you except mediocrity especially when it doesnt hurt your pocketbook

All Ive been saying is Im tired of UGA kool-aid drinking fans like you talking crap and then looking stupid every year because your to blind to see inept coaching at its best

Richt has the opportunity to prove everyone outside the kool-aid drinkers like you; wrong

I will always be a fan of the program but I will not be a fan of a coach sorry and thats where you are confused

Its the program not the coach thats important

So when I say show me coaching staff it doesnt mean Im a waffling fan

GTT writes: By the way, Florida had the ball taken away by a great defense, they didn’t lay it on the ground. UGA won that game.

You need to watch that game again. Half of those turnovers were NOT forced. And I think the only reason UF keeps getting talked about (during a week where they are not even playing) is anyone with any common sense knows the better team did not win in Jacksonville this year. Florida had the game Georgia had vs SC that day, it just came too late in the season and UGA made it into the SEC Champions game. They will have some great games coming up in the next few years since Georgia FINALLY won two in a row.

Georgia best chance and only chance is if Alabama doesn’t show up and forfeits the game. Nick Saban is a Big Game Coach and Mark Richt is a Little Game Coach. Alabama is prime rib. Georgia is SPAM.

You should have kept reading. It was a Western Conference position, not Ohio State, Note was #1 and # 2 at the time.

From Wikipedia ( therefore it must be true)

The Tournament of Roses committee were responsible for selecting and inviting the opposing team. Georgia was the number two team in the nation behind number 1 Ohio State. The Western Conference, forerunner of the Big Ten Conference, did not permit their teams to play in bowl games until the 1946 agreement between the Big Ten and Pacific Coast Conference.

We have smoked it and many have come to the conclusion that the Buckeyes would not have gone undefeated in the SEC this season. Braxton Miller would not have rushed for 1217 yards in the SEC. For crying out loud, Wisconsin at 7-5, is in your title game. Most national writers feel that the B1G is down this season.

Since Thomas is clearly ignoring my challenge to examine the W-L records of the BCS top five, here are some interesting fun facts:

School with toughest schedule, based on opponents’ W-L: Florida at 92-50. They only played three schools with losing records this year, all of them from the SEC. Louisiana still has a game to play (they’re favored).

By contrast, school with the easiest schedule base on opponents’ W-L: Alabama at 70-72. They played six teams with losing records, four of them from the SEC.

As mentioned previously Georgia’s opponents were a combined 71-71, with six of them (four from the SEC) having losing records. Georgia Southern is still playing at the moment.

Oregon opponents: 73-68, four with losing records, three of which were in the PAC 12. Stanford still has a game to play, as does Arkansas State, both are favored this weekend.

ND opponents: 79-62, three currently with losing records, two from the ACC and Pitt from the Big East. Pitt, Navy, Oklahoma, and Stanford all have games left to play, so Pitt could wind up at .500 (they are favored this week vs. South Florida). Oklahoma and Stanford are also favored in their games this week, and I would expect Navy to be favored over Army next week.

Just maybe the Gators can help “buckwinAP” next year. Then you and your new Coach can show the SEC something. I can assure you there is no other team in the NCAA that the Gators would rather play for a National Championship than OSU. Sure hope ole’ Urban can stay healthy that long.

Hey Reggie Ball, I can see where we are ranked and that would leave uga or bama left as the bcs champ. But the AP is going to put an undefeated team as their # 1 so watch for it. This story will grow in the weeks to come. And gatorboy44, Bring it on! We have the best coach in the country now and can take you or anyone else in the sec down.

Concerning UGA’s schedule: played two top-10 teams and had one really bad game against USC. Beat Florida – the team that beat USC AND Florida State quite comfortably – and LSU..

Ole Miss ended up 6-6, Vanderbilt 8-4, Missouri 5-7 (but beat Arizona State early and lost to 5 top 10 SEC teams – a VERY tough schedule) And GT even had a winning record before the UGA game (and Ga. Southern actually put up more points against UGA than GT

I just saw a slide show on AJC that went over the reasons that Saban may be over rated. I can think of a lot of names to call him but over rated is not one of them. You don’t have to like him (I don’t) to respect his accomplisments. His teams are always focused and disciplined. Until we knock him off his perch, he is still King of the Hill. After Saturday I hope that is no longer the case.

@AfterfurtherReview -

True, but either UGA or Alabama will have ALSO beat another current top-10 team themselves. Too bad Notre Dame doesn’t get to play their own really meaningful conference championship game against one more top 10 team. I guess next year will cause at least that to happen (the 4 team playoff.)

Maybe ND is really that good. Maybe they will prove it in the National Championship game. I wouldn’t bet against the SEC though. UGA’s one big question mark to me is the offensive line and offensive scheme flexibility against the number 1 defense in the land. USC dominated us there – but that WAS a long time ago. If UGA beats Alabama – I can’t see them NOT beating the number 2 defense – Notre Dame. And if Pitt can put up 26 against Notre Dame – I don’t see why either Georgia or Alabama can’t put up considerably more – including defensive scores off turnovers.

@Huh –

Florida barely beat whoever???

Notre Dame beat Purdue by 3, Michigan by 7, Stanford by 7, BYU by 3, and Pitt by 3 in triple OT ONLY because Pitt missed a chip shot FG, USC by 9 (USC played with a back up QB).

Yes, Notre Dame has a good D (2nd in points allowed) but so does Fl (3rd in points allowed) – and if your strength is D then the margin of victory isn’t as important AS victory, is it? Georgia has already beat Fl. and if they beat Alabama (1 in scoring D) – I don’t think ND will present an exceptional challenge – considering ND is 77th in scoring O whereas how many teams has ND faced that is in the top 20 in scoring O? (Georgia is 17th right now.)

I said I hope to be proven wrong about my assumptions

So because I dont believe this coaching staff can win it all makes me a non fan

You need serious help if you do

Try learning to read what someone says next time before you get all excited thinking you nailed someone
